Endorsement: L.A. County Supervisor Janice Hahn deserves another term (via latimesopinion)
Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn isn’t running for reelection unopposed, but she may as well be.
Her sole challenger has no experience and no coherent platform. This means that while there will another name on the ballot, there’s no real choice for voters. Luckily, Hahn has been a good supervisor for the 4district since she was first elected to the board in 2016 and we expect she will continue to be one if she wins a second term. We recommend a vote for her on March 3.
Hahn’s challenger is Desiree T. Washington, an attorney in private practice who once worked as a prosecutor for the State Bar of California. That’s about all we know about her, since Washington declined to be interviewed by the Times either in person or on the phone.
In fact, the core responsibility of the five-member Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is to operate the largest county government in the nation. The supervisors set policy for and oversee the county’s many agencies as they deliver human services to the most vulnerable people — the young and old, the poor and sick, the victimized and traumatized.
Even though she is the daughter of Kenneth Hahn, who served on the Board of Supervisors for 40 years, and even though she came with a decade of her own experience on the Los Angeles City Council and five years in the U.S. House of Representatives, Hahn acknowledges that she spent a good deal of her first term as a supervisor learning the job. Despite that, Hahn can claim some notable accomplishments.
